About The Kings Arms

The Kings Arms on Askrigg main street is an imposing Grade II-listed building that was once owned by the renowned horse trainer John Pratt, who famously won the 1872 St Leger with ‘Imperatrix’. It’s also now an indelible part of Yorkshire Dales folklore as the location of ‘The Drovers’ in the original ‘All Creatures Great and Small’. The Kings Arms is still packed full of character with a striking open fire, flagged stone floors and old photographs and equine memorabilia spread throughout. It’s open for food and drink daily from 12 noon onwards and proudly showcase a diverse range of beers from the local village brewery and the surrounding area.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch for Hen Weekend. Portions were substantial and the service from the team on duty were fantastic. Thank you so much.

We were in Askrigg for the weekend and booked dinner for Saturday evening. On Friday we popped in for drinks and sampled the trio of third pints, where was a wonderful way to showcase the local ales on offer. On Saturday we returned and were led through to a wonderful space in the restaurant. We were superbly looked after from a wonderfully friendly and attentive team. The food was equally great, with a fabulous starter of garlic mushrooms topped with Wensleydale, followed by a delicious burger with more Wensleydale cheese and bacon and for my wife a delicious Thai curry. The food was so good that we were also tempted by dessert which did not disappoint. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will certainly return when back in the area int he future. 5 stars all round from us!

A really lovely pub/restaurant with a great selection of food for meatlovers and vegetarians alike. Friendly service and a lovely atmosphere. We had eaten here and before and would definitely eat here again when we are back in the area.

Im a regular at Aysgarth Lodges and wanted to try somewhere new for Sunday lunch and The King's Arms was recommended. This was one of the nicest Sunday lunches I have add, from everything from the service, atmosphere and the food itself. Will definately be back.

Had a fabulous meal at the King’s Arm in lovely surroundings - the restaurant had a good ambience and was busy. We chose the chicken, bacon and mushroom pie and the fish pie. Both were very tasty and served with a nice arrangement of vegetables. Dessert was sticky toffee pudding with ice cream which was excellent. We enjoyed a great bottle of wine with the meal. The staff were very attentive and helpful.

A lovely Valentine's dinner with excellent food and a good range of choices on the menu. The service was friendly and pleasant, if a little slow, but attentive when they came to the table. Would visit again when next in the village.

Had Sunday lunch at the King’s Arms which was absolutely delicious! Couldn’t fault anything as staff were friendly and efficient; relaxed atmosphere and plentiful portions. Can definitely recommend a Sunday lunch at this lovely place, especially after a walk in this beautiful area.
